Thanks for saying they are arriving. Elizabeth's card arrived today safely. The big brad is fine.

A great mail day - made the walk to the road very enjoyable! I have beautiful cards from Marianne (let me know how you did the sparkle on the embossing?), Jill, and Jennifer. Only one sequin came unglued, so I'm trying the clear Tacky Glue on it.

Love them all!

Pam, I probably have no idea how I did the sparkle. A disadvantage to sending all different cards, I don't remember who got what.

Jennifer - this will be a good test since all of us gave you different glues to try. Besides, I have a ton of sequins and I'd like to know what will hold them, too. :lol:

Great day at the mailbox today. I received a nice heavy envelope from Marianne containing her card and tag. Marianne the card just drips of elegance and we love it. Thank you so much.

(In case you can't remember which card...the three glossy green marbled looking ornaments. Gorgeous finishes on them)

Please don't look at it that way. This way we get to help you with your earlier question about which glue would work, and you don't have to buy 15 different kinds of glue to find out. Besides that, I love the stamp you used and the colors of ink you chose.

I'm using the Club Scrap bookbinding
glue on my two. I'll let you know.
It was on the kitchen table (?? I don't know)
when I opened my mail, so I grabbed a wooden
match and dabbed some on because I didn't want
to lose the sequins.
And, Jen, not to worry, the mail gets treated really
badly these days. I always blame the post office :)

I'm with Pam on that! The glue dots that I used seem to be holding just fine. I also love the colors and that is a cool stamp.

I am very happy to report that Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue is holding those miscreant sequins very tightly. I tried my best to knock them off and they won't budge. I did let the glue dry overnight so that might make a difference? Best part of using this glue is that it's available at Walmart.

Now I'm going to try making a sequin wreath - a little idea that I found on Pinterest, of course. ;)

Thanks, Farley. That was one from the Stretch Your Stamps class last year. That might be UTEE on the ornaments. It was just a piece of paper that I cut into ornaments with scissors.
